摘要
Metalworking fluids(MWFs) are classified as hazardous substances. Due to the characteristics of the stable oil–water emulsions, it requires more costly and complicate treatment techniques to remove oil from spent MWFs. Metal organic frameworks(MOFs) are a porous network material used to remove contaminants from environment. One of the most prominent of MOFs is HKUST-1 or Cu-BTC. In this study, the Cu-BTCs were prepared by solvothermal method in various conditions and used as absorbent for removing oil micelles in MWF emulsion. The particle size of all synthesized Cu-BTCs ranged from ≈80 to 400 nm. The ability of all synthesized Cu-BTCs to remove oil micelle was greater than 95% in 60 min, while the capacity of GAC was obtained the result for only 6.8%. The maximum adsorption capacity(q _(max)) of oil micelles on Cu-BTCs was 1666.7 mg·g^(-1). The highest removal capacity of oil micelles in MWF emulsion is greater than 99% in 24 h by using Cu-BTCs washed with either butanol or ethanol.
